Eastwood’s manzanita
Eastwood’s manzanita is a very uncommon, sprawling evergreen shrub. It typically grows up to 2 ft. tall in the garden and can double or triple in width. The foliage is more grayish-green than other manzanitas, the bark is a beautiful red, and the flowers are white.
Once established it is both deer resistant and drought tolerant making it a beautiful choice for a worry free garden. Butterflies and other beneficial insects love this low growing shrub, and it is very nice in the garden. Avoid unnecessary pruning, but prune selectively to shape.
